There is an app for that. Seriously. I don't have it loaded anymore, but I did at one point have an iPhone app that had development times etc for huge varieties of film with many different chemicals. Once I realized how slim the chances were that I might actually once again develop any film, it was deleted to make room for something else. If you have no solution (pun intended) before then, I'll be back home on the 24-25th and can recover the information...
